The next 'Avatar' film is now scheduled to be released in 2017, according to director James Cameron. Cameron cited the fact that multiple 'Avatar' films are being planned. 'There's a layer of complexity in getting the story to work as a saga across three films that you don't get when you're making a stand-alone film,' he said.

Director James Cameron said Wednesday that writing three "Avatar" sequels is such a complex job he's delaying the first new film a year and it will now be released in late 2017.
